Being boiled in a suit that is soaking wet is a real issue. We were
paddocked alongside a FF driver who had two suits, so if one got wet, he
would use the dry one. It made enough sense to him to justify having two
suits (probably due to a first hand experience!).
As for the cool suit, it's a closed loop system, surrounded by your drivers
suit, and is sewn into a nomex undershirt. The fluid is also constantly
moving through as long as the pump is still running. The only way I can see
it being a problem is if it is leaking in your drivers suit. Otherwise, I
think you would have much bigger problems before a fire burned through, or
burst the line from the heat.
